Global and China Rechargeable Lithium Battery Business Report, 2009-2010

There are only ten rechargeable lithium battery cell manufacturers all over the world. A large proportion of Japanese manufacturers are engaged in the production of laptop battery cells, while South Korean and Chinese manufacturers mainly focus on producing battery cells for cell phone and other portable electronic appliances, the unit prices of which are far lower than laptop battery cell’s.

Shipment ; Income of World’s Major Lithium Secondary Battery Manufacturers, 2009-2010
The rechargeable lithium battery industry chain is long and extensive. The four major raw materials for rechargeable lithium battery by cost attribution are anode material, separator, electrolyte and cathode material. Non-power rechargeable lithium battery batteries usually adopt LiCo2O4 as anode material. However, the anode material of motive lithium battery is categorized into LiMn2O4 and LiFePO4. Japanese manufacturers mainly specialize in LiMn2O4, and have successively issued several electric cars with LiMn2O4 battery. Now, the frequent auto recalls make auto manufacturers behave extremely cautious that they won’t have a test for LiFePO4 battery manufacturers. At present, the major anode material manufacturers are from Japan and Europe. In 2010, thanks to the sharp demand from South Korea’s LG Chemical and Samsung SDI, Umicore surpassed Japan’s Nichia to become the world’s largest rechargeable lithium battery anode material company, with over 30% market shares. However, the rechargeable lithium battery anode material only accounted for less than 10% of Umicore’s income. Nichia, the world’s biggest LED manufacturer, also the world’s largest rechargeable lithium battery anode manufacturer by 2010, holds more than 20% market shares. BYD, a large electric vehicle manufacturer of China, purchases LiFePO4 batteries from Tianjin STL Energy Technology Co., Ltd. Now, only Japan’s rechargeable lithium battery manufacturers are capable of producing anode materials by themselves. Subordinated to Samsung Group, Chiel Industries is the world’s largest manufacturer of rechargeable lithium battery electrolyte as well as the largest clothing enterprise in South Korea. ; ;Compared with the rechargeable lithium battery upstream manufacturers in China, almost all of the overseas manufacturers are super-big plants with the annual revenue usually surpassing US$1 billion. Rechargeable lithium battery hybrid vehicles or electric vehicles are slowly promoted, while the upstream rechargeable lithium battery industry in China has been confronted with overcapacity.

China Automobile Sector Forecast to 2012

In the social transition period of China, some social contradictions are increasingly exposed, which are the potential threat to social stability. Due to the influence of the world financial crisis, the development of China faces serious test. The social security relative imperfect, unemployment crisis could trigger social, economic, political and ideological stability even stability of social order.

Social Stability Under the Current World Financial Crisis in China

China’s automobile industry has been rapidly developing since 2000. Despite the ongoing financial crisis, China has also become the largest automobile market in the world, with total sale of 3.84 Million vehicles for the first four months of 2009. Each section explains the current and future market trends, and developments in the Chinese automobile market. Our research forecasts immense opportunities for automobile manufacturers and players of automobile component industry in China.

The study also evaluates the growth avenues available for the country’s automobile market, which include motor insurance industry, steel industry, used vehicle market, automotive electronic market, biofuel industry, etc.

Export Tax Rebate Policy Adjustment in China Prices Larger

The internet services also reduced cost of internet access on the mobile gadgets.

Growth of the Mobile Internet in China

policy changes in the business of export profits of the cheese.To encourage enterprises to export more, China export tax rebate policy for over 20 years, means that the state has been the departure of export goods declaration, pre export production and circulation in all sectors of the domestic value added tax already paid tax and other indirect taxes or consumption taxes , returned to the exporters. Many foreign trade enterprises in China’s main profits come from the Government’s annual tax refund.The main thrust of the export tax rebate policy adjustment is to reduce trade surplus, a considerable number of export enterprises for the means to directly reduce profits. According to professional estimates, the export tax rebate rate declined one percentage point each, the textile industry’s operating profit would fall about 4%. The clothing, shoes, hats, etc. to adjust export tax rebate rate from 13% to 11% from 11% viscose adjusted to 5%. Specific to higher exports of leather gloves, for example, in January to April, China exported 230 million pairs, down 2.3%, export value of 230 million U.S. dollars, up 3.3%.According to the China Leather Association, introduced the Secretary General Su Chaoying, before the import and export of leather as the “processing trade”, the import of raw materials is not taxed, nor export tax rebates, there is no tariff burden on enterprises. For example, semi finished leather hides required to pay 5% 14% tariff and 17% of the value added tax, thus increasing the cost of leather exports.”Leather imported from China in recent years has been rising raw material costs, coupled with appreciation of the renminbi, the transport costs continue to increase export tax rebate policy adjustment and other factors, leather goods exporters export price increases entirely to be expected. “
